Commentary on Jeremiah 4:8

Theological / Devotional

Sackcloth. A loose garment or piece of cloth made of coarse, dark hair, worn in mourning and humiliation (see on Gen. 37:34).

Not turned back. Josiah’s noble efforts toward reform had not been sufficient. Much of the wickedness introduced in the reign of Manasseh was still prevalent (see on 2 Kings 24:3).
